I was underwhelmed by American Hustle and Wolf of Wall Street. Planning on seeing HER this weekend, and the others will have to wait for DVD or Cable, I guess. Missed out on NEBRASKA, just had too much going on and now it's not playing here anymore.

How is Before Midnight an Adapted Screenplay? What did they adapt that from? I would have thought it would be an Original Screenplay.

FIRST AND FOREMOST: Belgium scores again! Yey! Best Foreign Picture nom with The Broken Circle Breakdown. That makes 2 nominations in 3 years. They are dancing in the streets in Flanders (yes, both these nominations were Flemish films.) If you have a chance to see this movie, DO NOT MISS IT, it's outstanding.

Even though American Hustle and Gravity have the most nominations (10 each), methinks the stars are aligned for a big night for 12 Years A Slave. No hard evidenvce, just an inkling.

Biggest losers: 1. Inside Llewyn Davis is pretty much ENTIRELY ignored. Not even Best Pic!2. Robert Redford not a Best Actor nomination for All Is Lost?
